The following is a news release from the city of Chubbuck.
CHUBBUCK – Homes, neighborhoods, and businesses transformed the community into a sparkling winter wonderland filled with holiday cheer during Chubbuck’s annual Christmas Light Contest. The city is delighted to announce the winners.
For the second year in a row, the contest was judged by a panel of multiple judges from outside the City of Chubbuck, ensuring a fair, impartial, and fresh perspective on every display. The competition continued the refreshed approach of celebrating displays that are not only visually stunning, but also creative, unique, and full of personality, with judges asked to look for what felt truly “new and different.”
This year’s competition placed special emphasis on those who embraced change, moved beyond repeating the same displays from previous years, and brought fresh, innovative ideas to their decorations. While many displays across the city were impressive, organizers especially appreciated the participants who pushed their creativity and helped raise the bar for future contests.
The Best overall winner at 4962 Rose features perfectly spaced, neat lights, lush garland framing the windows, and a breathtaking nativity scene that serves as the heart of the display. With no visible cords or clutter, every detail feels polished and intentional, creating a presentation that truly screams perfection.
Over on Callie, the Griswold Award goes to a stretch of homes that turn the entire block into a wall of light and color, with 755 and 765 Callie leading the charge. Both yards, including the back, are covered in lights and decorations on all sides, creating an over-the-top holiday spectacle that would make even the Griswolds proud.
